The Left will scream about absurdity of Trump's desired "military parade" but won't make a peep about endless US wars overseas. The Right will praise parade & further militarization of society, substituting love of war for love of Liberty which is founding principle of country.

This response to Trump’s military parade request from Fmr US Army General Paul Eaton is everything: "The military is not Donald Trump's to use & abuse this way. Our military is the very best in the world, they are not to be reduced to stagecraft to prop up Donald Trump's image"

Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., balked at the potential cost of President Donald Trump's desired military parade on Wednesday, calling the concept a "fantastic waste of money to amuse the president." https://t.co/euBrWnCCNz

Defense scholars immediately raised questions about whether Trump’s desired military parade would really fall into the same category as France’s Bastille Day parade, which is held annually and is deeply rooted in the country’s history and values. https://t.co/6dY0R6GrGS

Ask our men and women serving in the military if they want to spend the next few months practicing marching in lock step, wasting money that could be spent on their families or vets or making their jobs easier and safer. I bet I can guess their answers.
